I am glad to hear that Elsita was there with her embrace, Margarita, but so sad to hear that you have suffered this recent loss. In times of grief, of mourning, we need our sisters indeed. My genetic sister, Marion, has been writing about loss recently on her blog; so many people have been sharing about it, too. I am glad this feels like a safe place to do so.

Fri, 12 Dec 2008 09:04:36 +0000http://thesisterproject.com/galleries/?p=96#comment-35Thanks Margaret for your warm welcome. I love the idea of universal sisterhood… I am very, very attached to my sister and mom although we are in different countries. I also have the luck to have a few other sisters all over the world and I do feel very close to them no matter where we are or when was the last time we talk. Elsa is a sister… she is always ready to talk to you, give you a virtual hug or make you feel her smile. Just a week ago I had a miscarriage and Elsa was there, with the right words, with a nice hug… Elsa is indeed a dear sister. She is a brave woman who went through many difficult moments in her life but who never stopped looking at the beauty around her…she is an example to me and I wish I am able to smile to life the way she does.

Fri, 12 Dec 2008 04:00:00 +0000http://thesisterproject.com/galleries/?p=96#comment-34I am the daughter of a Margaret who unbelievably has almost exactly the same name as Margaret Oomen above! I met Margie through Elsita and she and I share a love of photography.

I don’t often comment on Elsa’s blog but read her every post and am always struck by her openess and love for her fellow human beings. It is clear that she has had the most extraordinary life of hardship and reward – and I think it is reflected in her work – which I think of as magical realism in art!
